Título: Straight from the Earth
Autor: Myra Goodman, Marea Goodman
Sinopse: One hundred delicious plant-based recipes everyone will love, from breakfast to dessert. From their humble beginnings as a 2.5-acre raspberry field, Earthbound Farm now grows and distributes organic produce nationally. Co-founder Myra Goodman and her daughter Marea are skillful home cooks, and the proximity to their fields of fresh vegetables and fruits made it easy to develop creative—and definitely delicious—dishes that are not only heavy on the produce, they just happen to be vegan! Using the freshest ingredients and offering intriguing flavor combinations, these 100 plant-based recipes are completely free of meat or dairy. As you gain insight on organics and essential components like nuts and seeds, soy, and coconut, you’ll also learn about the practical and personal reasons to go vegan. Taking you from breakfast and lunch to dinner and dessert with such satisfying delights as Quinoa Banana Skillet Bake, Slow Simmered Beans with Tuscan Kale, Thai Lettuce Rolls, and Very Chocolately Chocolate Brownies, Myra and Marea share their diverse and delicious collection of recipes. They excel in salads and Marea’s deliciously skewed Eccentric Caesar with its cashew and curry-based dressing are just a taste of what’s to offer. Choosing a more plant-based diet was a simple choice for them and much too tempting to resist. Their goal? For you to enjoy and savor every single bite. “Myra Goodman and daughter Marea have pulled together more than 90 farm-to-fork recipes for everything from new-wave tabbouleh made with quinoa, to grilled fig sandwiches with roasted pistachio pesto and balsamic caramelized onions. It’s billed as a vegan cookbook, but it’s the type of fresh, appealing, veggie-centric fare that will appeal to omnivores, vegetarians and foodarians of every persuasion.” —San Jose Mercury News “Between the recipes, there are helpful guides that explain why it’s important to choose organic foods and the health benefits of including nuts and beans in your diet; there’s a good mix of easy recipes and dishes that are weekend cooking projects.” —The Oregonian
